ABSTRACT
I am handing over to the readers an article which is the result of my own research process carried out in the Silesia voivodeship, Poland. It relates to corporate social responsibility - a concept according to which enterprises should take into account social and ecological aspects in their business activities as well as in contacts with its stakeholders. This concept for many years has been attracting interest and recognition of academics, politicians as well as business practitioners. Its postulates contribute to achieving harmony in the contemporary, turbulent environment, the condition of which unfortunately leaves much to be desired. At the same time, however, a research questions arises, whether contemporary European enterprises really undertake activities aimed at the environment and the community, whether the scope of their activities can be considered satisfactory as well as what are the examples of specific initiatives. The author decided to find an answer to them by conducting an interview with practitioners. Conditioned by the will to create ability to capture context and lived reality he decided to develop results in the form of a case study.
